Mi Innamoravo di Tutto: I Was in Love with Everything





Today, I felt like I passed another Gate...and now I am on the otha side. Reality is changing so fast around me. I feel the Powers surrounding me. Gotta B more conscious of the Whole Thang.Vibrations are Powerful. This Is All I Know. And It Is Enough!... trust me, man. Mi Innamoravo Di Tutto. Fabrizio De Andrè and his Songs had a powerful influence over my-self and my personal growth. Thank You Fabrizio!
Now, I AM IN LOVE WITH EVERYTHING!
All the Tribes of This Planet are with ME.
And I am With THEM ALL.
MITAKUYE OYASIN.
People take their own decisions for themselves and I have not to intervene. Gotta B focused over My-self, pursue my mission and stick to my values.
I AM WHAT I AM. I AM SELF-SIMILIAR TO MY-SELF.
LIKE A FRACTAL, ON DIFFERENT SCALES, MY DNA IS ALL-WAYS THE SAME.
TRUTH.
RIGHT ACTION.
PEACE.
LOVE.
NON VIOLENCE.

RE_COMBINING OVER AND OVER TO GENERATE NEW REALITIES.

Blossom...Blessings



I know, it's late and I got a cold.But let me just upload this new drawing. Once again,inspiration is coming when I am not looking for Her. Yes, inspiration is a She. So, last nite I was flirting with Her. Now, I know I can express myself in many, different ways: Music, Art, Word. In any case, Vibrations are radiating all around me and my heart is full.
Despite the environment, I am coming into blossom and with blessing.

I come from far away. I am going far away. With a Smile on my face.
Blessed is He who come into Blossom.

Maya in All Its Forms




Many shapes, thousands of colors, several frequencies, many tales but...just
ONE REALITY.
Many Is One and One is Many. Maya fades away.Truth is One.

Stella Numero Uno


This blog is my 'Spielraum'. According to the American developmental psychologist Bruno Bettelheim, the term means “free scope, plenty of room,”. In his words, one needs plenty of room “to move not only one’s elbows but also one’s mind, to experiment with things and ideas at one’s leisure, or to put it colloquially, to toy with ideas.”
And I am playing, now, with my new game: Stella Numero Uno. Wanna play with me?Enjoy!

The Green Heart of Italy




Today, I realized I am really missing my House in the Green Heart of Italy. Once I am done with this Master program, I wanna take a rest and stay there for a while to choose what I am gonna do next. In meantime I am enjoying and sharing with you all this pic I took there. Now, I feel peace-full. Shanti. Shanti. Shanti.

Business with a Cause. Warrior-Without-A-Pause.

America is the home of business thinking. I am soaking into it.A full immersion into entrepreneurship. I am acquiring all the means to develop my business and achieve my personal mission through an effective and outcome-oriented organization.Today, I was fasting to achieve the Vision...and the Vision came and explained all to me.
Thank You!
My American experience changed, once again. Now, everything is clear. My effort and my commitment are going to be stronger and more focused on my real, ultimate goals.
I'ts gonna be business and with a cause. I am Warrior-Without-A-Pause.

Today's haiku is:

Empty parking lots. Autumn leaves are whirling like dancers.

The Only Constant Is Change

My life is a challenge. A continuous challenge.Always doing new things or doing the same things in different ways. Cannot avoid the powerful changes.And when the change
becomes a burden, just let it go. Go with the flow of things. Just get rid of my safe harbour and seize the unknown. Just pierce into darkness and emptiness to generate new processes. I am coming from far away. I am going far away. With a smile on my face.

Reminiscences from anotha life:

I was left here, on the Slave Coast.
My brothers are gone. My woman has gone. Away.
My drum is calling dem...dem,dem,dem.
The beat of my drum is calling my ancestors.
The beat of my drum is calling.
The beat of my drum.
The beat.

John Nash: 1994 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences Acceptance Address

Nash equilibria, anyone?My research and my papers are about game-theory, memetics and cognitive models, and...this is why John Nash is one of my heroes.
My friend Ram gave me the chance to listen to his words...I was so moved by his Nobel Lecture. And I've just finished a track dedicated to him (I am gonna put it on-line ASAP). Always in my heart, John.
